[UI] Save and Load configurations

Everyone knows, configuring the ship is too annoying so my idea is, when you config your ship, you can save that configuration for future uses. For example, I configure my aegis for pvp, 1st configuration is full speed, I finish all my configuration and I save that config with the name full speed aegis pvp. When I change to other ship I need to delete all, and when I will config again my aegis, I just go to load that config I saved before. This way, I don´t need to drag everything to the ship.

Sorry if I explain it bad.

 

I have always thought for the same idea!
FOR!

 

This idea has already been explained very often.

It's still a good idea!

 

Very good idea!

 

i like your idea bro

 

This is something the DEV team was supposed to be looking into right after the Hangar change in MAY 2016 but we have heard nothing about it since. It was supposed to be a system to get around the Surgeon/Pusat Transfer problem when transferring from Goliath/Vengeance. Also from other types of ships to other favorite ships.

 

Gotta have the same number of slots Already now you can, but it only works for the same type of ship for now. Best to have a saved config than transfer parts to other ships - that is DO for you.

 

YES that is the current Transfer System which we all dislike. This is about a saved config so we could load any ship once and be able to reload it from a saved load out.

 

My idea is to not drag all things to the ship again, that means you gonna get all your ship and all your drones configed only loading configuration that you saved before.

 

Give us the freedom to saved at least 5 configuration and load it when time needs it.

 

i think makes more sense just to change ship have same configs wen change or ave choice if request gets to complicated and puts you off playing tbh

 

We should be able to save a configuration (both of a ship) for every ship (transfer group) we want to play with, currently there are 18 different groups to deal with;

Spoiler

Aegis
BigBoy
Citadel
DefCom
Goliath
Surgeon
Leonov
Liberator
Nostromo
N Envoy
N Ambassador
Phoenix
Piranha
Spearhead
Tartarus
Vengeance
Pusat
Yamato

I know there are some of these that you think I should not list, but you have to remember this is for everyone, not just the UFE, and even the newbs should be able to switch to any ship they have as easily as the UFE does. Ships not listed are in the base group mentioned and the transfer system allows these to be transferred between. Saved configurations would be used for changing ship types not changing within the group.

For those who fly a different configuration for PvE and PvP you get to save 1 setup for each style of play per ship group so there would be 36 saved group configurations with a total of 72 different assignments (config 1 and 2 of each ship), granted most to be used will probably only be 10 ship groups so 20 saved configurations and 40 assignments (this is assuming most will only care to use Bought or Uridium ships) these could increase as they add more NEW ships (like Nemesis) and am assuming you will not want to do Leonov, DefCom and Yamato (but have allowed for 2 of the 3) but then they could increase the numbers to accommodate these if there was such a desire.

This system would allow you to equip any ship to what you want in 3 clicks (after setup) select ship, select style (PvP/PvE), and equip. When making the Saved Configurations you would select Best Available or Best Owned, for guns and shields, the extras as you want them, PET and Drone equipment and designs. Best OWNED would remove from any ships equipped and apply them to the ship you have selected, whereas Best Available would leave equipment already assigned alone and only load what is seen when you enter into the Hangar Equipment page for that ship (the difference between seeing the equipment available to equip or the inventory tab). This would also take into account the Upgrade status of the items, so best owned would load all LF-4 level 16 that you own then fill with the next level until fully equipped with assignments as specified Drones, Ship, and PET (since most people want the added boost from drones they are loaded first or not you set it).

The initial setup would be done from a setup page so you could make general multiple choice selections without actually loading each ship group to save and could even be setup to do Multiple groups at once on the FIRST ENTRY to the system by being able to select more than one Group at a time (e.g. I fly with 4 Shield and 4 Speed on my 2 configurations no matter what ship so all groups could be set this way for my PvE settings and use the same extras on every ship with priority loading to allow for lesser slots). In the example I could set all 10 PvE configs (20 assignments) in one visit, the same could be done for the PvP if you followed the same type of thing there. They could even add a LOCK so the equipment on your FAVORITE ship(s) is not removed by the "Owned" selection (for you UFE's that want more than one ship available with pre-assigned equipment) so those ships assigned to the Favorite Hangars could be fully equipped and ready to fly just warp into them and they would be equipped with the stuff from the last ship or be locked with the best equipment already depending on the amount of equipment you have and have upgraded.

 

This would save a lot of time , & after done with config the 1st time for a ship it would help to make sure you didn't forget any details . I like NO ! Love this idea <3 . Hope it gets added to the game .

 

I agree...
